He is also the son of the sea God Poseidon. One day at school he is attacked by a group of monsters pretending to be students that are shadowing. Immediately he and his good friend jump in a cab outside and go to a demi god summer camp called “Camp Half-blood”. Once he gets there he finds that the magical tree that protects the camp from monsters is slowly dying. They find that the only thing that can save their camp now is the Golden Fleece.
